Images on the earth’s crust and upper mantel can be found on a webpage hosted by the IGCP (International Geological Correlation Programme). An interactive worldmap allows you to obtain diverse geological transect information on the selected area.

Project objective is “to provide ready access to seismic images of the Earth’s basement geology, deep crust and upper mantle, with interpretations of these data to contribute to more informed debate on:

* Geological paradigms (theories)
* Tectonic processes (plate tectonics, dynamic processes)
* The natural environment (landscapes, soils, erosion)
* Natural hazards (earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis)
* The sustainable use of natural resources including soil, water, energy (oil, gas, coal, geothermal) and minerals.”
